Cream Cheese Hummus





Yields
Makes about 1 1/2 cups

Pam McGee shared with us this pungent dip for vegetables, crackers, and chips. We thought it made a great sandwich spread too.

 1 can (15 1/2 oz.) garbanzos, drained (reserve liquid) and rinsed
 1 package (3 oz.) regular or reduced-fat cream cheese, at room temperature
 1 tablespoon lemon juice
 1/4 cup minced green onions (white and pale green parts only)
 1 to 2 teaspoons prepared horseradish
  About 1/2 teaspoon salt
Step 1
1

In a food processor or blender, whirl garbanzos, 1/4 cup reserved liquid, cream cheese, lemon juice, green onions, 1 teaspoon horseradish, and salt until smooth. Taste, and add more horseradish and salt if desired.
